Was it not here on BTW that someone talked about her handicapping? well...she must be decent cause she is doing thr paddock show at NYRA along with andy and jason....maggie is actually in the paddock reporting....shes' the next generation jan rushton...i hope maggie washes and combs her hair more than jr ever did.....

I try to listen to her, and she has made helpful observations; I just think they don't make enough use of her. Generally, she says the two MOTO standouts look great in the paddock, but that 35-1 shot over there doesn't have the greatest coat, and that 18-1 shot isn't exactly muscled up. I'm sure it's happened, but how often has she pointed up a real stinker of a 3/5 shot in the paddock?

I think if they put her in a little skirt and high heels maybe more people would bet Belmont? I think it would make me tune in more often!

You can be absolutely certain Maggie never knocks longshots. The only bigger prices she may cover that she is less than thrilled with are firsters, and even there she is careful. There is no upside in knocking big prices. We don't do it.

OT a bit, but I am wondering if dontdoit remembers a horse from back then whose specialty (an odd one) was winning on the Aqueduct turf course only... he was trained by Dick DeStasio, whom I miss greatly.

I don't off-hand.

I think Cinteelo's only wet track loss was to Forego in the Woodward when Jorge Velasquez had him towards the inside on a dead rail. He was fourth.
